At position 6, B is no longer sailing on another leg of the course than Y, because
Y has returned to the previous leg (see TR Call L6) and B has not yet rounded
the mark, nor is she sailing towards the next mark.

Question 2

The boats are at a leeward mark to be rounded to port. Y has rounded the mark
and is on the leg to the next mark. As B enters the zone, Y bears away to gybe
and sail back to the mark in order to trap B. B rounds the mark and starts sailing
to the next mark. After position 3, Y luffs to a collision course with B. Both
boats luff head to wind and there is no contact. Blue protests. What should the
call be?

Answer 2

No penalty.

At position 4, B is rounding the mark on the required side and is sailing towards
the next mark. The boats are no longer on different legs. Rule 24.2 does not
apply. B is subject to rule 10 and Y must comply with rule 16.1 when she
changes course. B keeps clear by luffing and Y complies with rule 16.1 by
luffing to enable B to keep clear.
